Preservation should not merely imitate the past but also incorporate sustainable and advantageous evolutions. For context, the roof highlighted in green is deemed ‘damaging’ by the local council. We are being asked to change the entire roof to match the roof highlighted in red. Can you spot the difference? Didn’t think so. We are imploring that common sense prevails here and that no more tax payer money is wasted on targeting developers who are actually trying to make a positive difference. We’re only 11 signatures away from reaching our goal of 100 in our peitition. If you could give up a quick 2 minutes of your time it would be greatly appreciated. The aim is to use this within our appeal against an enforcement notice. https://lnkd.in/eJKSUtCU

maybe we need a rating system for landlords and tenants. There is probably some law against this. #landlordsfromhell #landlordproblems #tenantproblems #alishacollins #casperwyomingrealestate #realestatebestie

🌎 It's 2024. Do you know where your emissions are? 🌎 2024 is the first compliance year for Local Law 97, and it affects much affordable and rent-regulated housing in NYC. In December, the DOB released new rules, focusing on compliance rather than penalties. But affordable housing buildings, especially those subject to Article 321 need to ACT NOW! Check out the #NYCDOB's super helpful new Article 321 Filing Guide which outlines penalties, reporting requirements, and outlines how some buildings can have more time to comply if they commit to deeper decarbonization: https://lnkd.in/e6TH6knb.

What fees levied by municipalities for building permits are an unfair taking? The Supreme Court is set to hear the case of Sheetz v. County of El Dorado, a potential landmark property-rights case with significant economic implications. The central question is whether governments can use building permits to coerce property owners. George Sheetz applied for a permit to build a home, and the county conditioned it on a $23,420 fee for traffic impact mitigation, raising concerns about excessive fees. The case involves constitutional considerations, including the Fifth Amendment, Nollan, and Dolan precedents, addressing the essential nexus and rough proportionality of permit conditions. The outcome may impact government takings and property rights protection against excessive fees and exactions #realestatedevlopment #permits #municipalities #commercialrealestate #realestate

New York City’s landmark climate law, Local Law 97, is putting significant financial pressure on co-op and condo owners, particularly low- and middle-income households. The law requires buildings larger than 25,000 sq. ft. to reduce carbon emissions by 40% by 2030 and become emissions-free by 2050, with non-compliance potentially resulting in millions of dollars in fines annually. A new bill in the City Council aims to ease these penalties for owners struggling to meet the emission goals. For instance, Queensview co-ops in Astoria estimate an average cost of $51,000 per resident for necessary upgrades, totaling $60 million. Many residents, especially retirees, find it more feasible to pay the $1,000 yearly fine instead. While these proposed changes may alleviate financial burdens, environmental advocates argue that they could undermine the goal of significantly reducing carbon emissions, which buildings contribute to nearly 70% of in NYC. What are your thoughts on this issue? How should NYC balance financial feasibility with environmental responsibility?

The city and state governments in New York are both failing to meet the carbon-reduction goals in their own climate laws. And unlike building owners, including co-op and condo boards, those governments will face no financial penalties for their failures. The city’s building decarbonization law, Local Law 97, requires owners of most large buildings to slash their planet-warming emissions under prescribed caps or face stiff fines. The carbon caps will become increasingly stringent in the years to come. Under the law, the city government was required to lead the way on a faster timeline with a steep carbon cut of 40% to municipal buildings (from 2006 levels) by July 2024, and then 50% by January 2030. However, the Adams administration has majorly missed the mark, according to Crain's New York Business reports.
